A ramp for Danish: volunteers and tools needed
Danish uses a wheelchair and can't leave the house because of three steps at the door; we need a few hours of carpentry.

Danish has used a wheelchair since 2023, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Danish can only go outside when two neighbors are available to lift the chair.
The materials (treated timber, screws and non-slip surface) have been donated by a local lumberyard. We need a carpenter or two to measure, cut and build, plus a helper or two.
The ramp has to meet the accessibility guideline for gradient, which is why a person with building experience is important. We estimate six hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Danish's family will cook lunch for the team.
Thank you so much.

Rooting for you, Asad. Get well soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Lahore.
Best of luck, Asad. Hope you get there. Take care
Good luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings
Hope it all works out, Asad. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I hope November is when things finally get easier.
wishing Danish a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Manukau
